I need advice for my build of Fortress Vader from Star Wars, please help

Hello. I recently began the project of making a 1 : 1 scale Fortress Vader in Minecraft. So far, in the survival world, all I and my friend have accomplished is digging a big hole beneath the spot we allocated for the fortress. So, yesterday, I began designing the actual build (probably should have done that before we even started digging the hole but whatever), and today I came to a conclusion. The height does not match the dimensions I had been given. The fortress is not, in fact, 250 meters tall, but 300, meaning we need to build the base at y = 20. Mind you, y = 20 would be the top of the cliff, not the bottom. That means that, for a sizeable cliff, we'd need to go way past deepslate.

So that was the problem, now onto the solution. We've already debated multiple solutions, among which:

- Spend another month digging the cliff
- Make the base smaller
- Make it shorter

NONE OF THESE ARE GOOD IDEAS!!!

The first one is bad for a reason you all can probably guess, it's time consuming and annoying. We already spent two weeks making a perimeter and aren't even done yet because we're morons. Digging even more AROUND said perimeter will only make things take EVEN LONGER.

Making it smaller then? Well, I suppose that could work, but we'd need to cover up a huge part of the perimeter AND I'd need to redesign the whole thing. Plus, the goal was to be (to my knowledge) the first person to build a 1 : 1 build of Fortress Vader, and making it smaller basically just makes me a Rendog ripoff.

Then surely, I could just make it shorter, right? Yes, except for the fact that that looks HORRIBLE. I do not want to make it stubby because it looks completely awful.

In conclusion, all of the options I considered are bad, and I have no idea what to do. If anyone has a proposal for a solution, please tell me, your help would be much appreciated.
